Found in WV USA near pine and hardwood trees, I picked it up before taking pictures and cannot remember if it was growing on a dead log or soil.

Wears a skirt with a porous spore bearing surface, small size.

Please compare with Amanita Chrysoblema

Found in WV USA near conifers and hardwood trees

Cap color is tan/brownish-orangish over the center of the cap to pale yellow over the margin. Margin is smooth.

Cap vellum distribution appears with some larger flatter squamules and smaller more pyramidal warts, cap vellum color is cream or white.

Skirt placement is apical or very high stipe texture is ruffled or string cheesy, stipe color is white with some off white tint.

Base of the mushroom reveals a ruffled volva with no apparent root.

Picture quality is not great I'm sorry.

Cap color led my first thought to Ser. Pantherinae, stipe texture and stipe base changed my opinion to sp-IN10 considering cap color, skirt placement and smooth margin has me considering A. Chrysoblema despite strange cap color after referencing inaturalist.

Found in WV USA near pine and scattered hardwood

Physical features look like Multisquamosa, but pigment range and cap color is confusing me

Cap color in Pic 1 isn't a good example, 4 is much better, almost straw yellow, not like tan

Pigment range extending nearly over the margin before fading to white in what looks like old specimen.

Robust tooth/root, on booted base with collared volva

Gills appear very free with plenty truncate short gills

Skirt looks funneled and was frail when we picked it and is not shown in all pictures

Overall size of the mushroom is large

My first thought was A. multisquamosa, my second thought was Amanita subsect Gemmatae

Please compare to A. Arkansana

Found last year around this time in WV USA

Found near lots of hardwood trees

Pic 1-4 is not situ I picked it up from lots of hardwood leaf litter in an area that had healthy plants, pic 5-7 is a different mushroom but the pictures are taken where I found it

Cap color is bright yellow to white above the margin and darkening towards the center, inherently striate margin, no sign of cap vellum, cap is flat or convex.

Stipe has a skirt placed very high and colored yellow, and a volva that forms a sac, the base of the mushroom almost appears collared. Stipe is not pure white and tinted yellow

Gills seem notched to the stipe, crowded with frequent short gills

Please compare to A. Persicina

Found in WV USA, alongside some hardwood and dense pine trees.

Cap vellum is flat or plaque-like, yellowish or generally not white.

Cap color ranges from peachy orange to bright yellow, remaining darker over the disc and growing lighter towards the margin, margin does not appear to have inherently pronounced striations, with some exceptions in older samples.

Stipe color ranges from white to yellowish. Stipe texture is like string cheese and reveals the skirt and a volva.

Skirt appears roughly mid stipe, and cross section suggests that skirt color is white and not yellow. Volva looks like a bulbous base, generally centered and not booted, forming rings that I can't truly distinguish from the string cheese texture on the stipe, but is not collared.
